Romans 10:2

The Righteousness Of God Through Faith In Christ

¹ Brothers, my heart's desire and my prayer to God for them is, that they may get salvation. ² For I give witness of them that they have a strong desire for God, but not with knowledge. ³ Because, not having knowledge of God's righteousness, and desiring to give effect to their righteousness, they have not put themselves under the righteousness of God.
